El Gallo Negro

Heavyweight boxer Gerald Washington, a former USC football player and Navy veteran, is putting his undefeated record on the line tonight against Skipp Scott at Fantasy Springs Resort Casino in Indio. The co-headline fight will be featured on "The Night of the Heavyweights" starting at 7 p.m. PT on Fox Sports 1.

"I've had a great training camp," said Washington, who stands 6-foot-5.
"I've had a long time to prepare. I've been working hard and we're
ready to go. I know that he's a big guy that comes forward and that he
tries to be aggressive. He's 6-foot-8 and 270 pounds, so I'm looking
forward to fighting someone bigger than me for the first time.

"It's going to be fun. I'm excited about being the co-main event this
Thursday. These fights are preparing for bigger and better things. My
career as a professional boxer is progressing and I'm ready to go for
anything that comes my way. For now all I can say is that Thursday is
going to be exciting."
